    Mac is based on the same exact thing as Linux, so good job hating a sibling of what you love… but then if you like Apple, you don’t know what you’re talking about anyways, so no surprises here!

      macOS is a BSD derivative (which is, itself, just UNIX System V with a bunch of extensions installed-- long story there)-- linux - on the other hand - is reversed-engineered OS resembling UNIX-- in a way , they’re related, but, at best, they’re cousins… and macOS (originally NeXTSTEP, developed in the mid-80s by NeXT, Inc, and later bought by Apple) came years earlier.

      actually the story of all of this is super-interesting. and you’re… quite wrong– I’ve been studying the history of this for decades, and you’re talkIng out of your butt, lol

      it’s fine, I don’t want this to be a competition or fight. let’s learn together!

      EDIT: would you like to hear the story? it’s SUPER INTERESTING! :)
